Meeting & Speaker: Greg Salmeri and Laurie Resnick
2025-10-10 09:30 - 12:30 (America/Los_Angeles) | Laguna Presbyterian Church, Tankersley Hall, 415 Forest Ave., Laguna Beach, 92651, United States
Join us at our General Meeting on October 10th to hear Greg Salmeri and his partner Laurie Resnick speak on decorating for the holidays with plants. Greg and Laurie have spent decades transforming indoor environments using plants, furnishings and decorative flourishes. The pair began their 32-year partnership as interior plantscapers, an element of their business they still maintain, along with the Associated Group, which produces large-scale holiday decorations.
They are the owners of Rolling Greens, which is comprised of 2 acres of landscaping, garden and a home design emporium in the Arts District in Los Angeles, in addition to 2 additional stores in Studio City and Beverly Grove. Greg and Laurie spent three years planning and constructing the 15,000 square foot showroom that contains various smaller spaces ranging from a prep kitchen to a gallery, and the other adapted into a greenhouse. This magnificent store is the flagship of Rolling Greens. This is where they developed the concept of a full-service gardening store that then developed into an event space as well.
Greg loves to collect eclectic items from around the world and then find perfect homes for each piece. From Opium beds, French wrought iron chairs to fountains to everything in between. He loves French modern and loves to create a super eclectic space in his own spectacular home garden. Greg states that his love of the garden came from his mother, who was an avid gardener. Greg is an incredible friend of the Laguna Beach Garden Club and he opened his magnificent Emerald Bay Garden to the club for the 2019 tour. That began the legacy of tours being sold out, thanks to his incredible generosity. This meeting will surely be a packed house to see these speakers show us how to decorate like they do for their celebrity clients!
Join us from 9:30-10:00 a.m. for social time and refreshments, the meeting begins promptly at 10:00 a.m. Meetings are held at Laguna Presbyterian Church in Tankersley Hall located at 415 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach, Ca. Non-members are invited to attend for free on their first visit.
No parking in the Church parking. Plenty of street parking available.

Meeting & Speaker: Hannah Muller
2025-11-14 09:30 - 12:30 (America/Los_Angeles) | Laguna Presbyterian Church, Tankersley Hall, 415 Forest Ave., Laguna Beach, 92651, United States
Join us at our General Meeting on November 14th to hear Hannah Muller speak on Designing with Dried Flowers.
Hannah Muller is a second generation flower farmer and florist in Northern California. She harnesses the beauty of blooms to create everlasting works of art while leaning into a legacy flourishing with sustainability. She was born and raised on Full Belly Farm, which is located in the beautiful Capay Valley in Northern California.
Full Belly Farm Grows over 350 acres of certified organic fruits, vegetables, animals and flowers. Fifteen of those acres are devoted to cut flowers, which they sell primarily through their farmers markets, to wholesale buyers, and to local stores and restaurants. Hannah now co-owns the farm with her family. She creates floral arrangements that mimic the surrounding landscape and uses the fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers grown on Full Belly Farm to create unique and wild garden style designs for weddings and events. She also makes wreathes and textural installations with the flowers they dry in Full Belly Farms’ Wreath Room and incorporates dried flowers into her other designs along with fresh flowers.
Over the last decade, she has helped to pioneer the Field-To-Vase movement in Northern California, reminding supporters of local organic farming to not only eat local produce but to enjoy locally grown flowers as well.
Hannah is the author of ‘Designing with Dried Flowers’ and has been featured in Sunset magazine in June 2024.
Join us from 9:30-10:00 a.m. for social time and refreshments, the meeting begins promptly at 10:00 a.m. Meetings are held at Laguna Presbyterian Church in Tankersley Hall located at 415 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach, Ca. Non-members are invited to attend for free on their first visit.

Meeting & Speaker: Jana Johnson

Join us at our General Meeting on December 12th to hear Jana Johnson speak on her work on the conservation of the Palos Verdes Blue butterfly.
Jana Johnson is a tenured professor at Moorpark College and holds adjunct positions with SMC & UCLA. Her lab at Moorpark College is a grad lab in a community college setting and known as the Endangered Butterfly Project. Her research is endangered lepidoptera and it is her absolute joy to release captive reared endangered butterflies to the wild multiple times each year from the efforts of her community college-based student lab.
Jana singled-handedly brought this delicate and beautiful butterfly back from the brink of extinction. The beautiful Palos Verdes Blue butterfly can be seen on the Matt Willey mural located at the Laguna Beach County Water District. When the Laguna Beach Garden Club commissioned the mural Matt felt strongly about including this incredible creature in his effort to bring to light the plight of the pollinators in his mural.
Jana received her B.A. in Biology from UT and briefly pursued a career in pharmaceutical research. She returned to school and received an M.S. in Biology from Texas State University and discovered her passion for Ecology. She went on to receive her PhD in Biology at UCLA.
Join us from 9:30-10:00 a.m. for social time and refreshments, the meeting begins promptly at 10:00 a.m. Meetings are held at Laguna Presbyterian Church in Tankersley Hall located at 415 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach, Ca. Non-members are invited to attend for free on their first visit.
